A message from our shareholders

Those who's futures are in our hands.

"Calm"
"Happy"
"Peace"
"Equal"
"Clean"

How we aim to deliver

Our products are designed to go from triggered emotions back to happy hues, so that if feels “sunny” and “calm” once again.

Our business model is impact-first supporting charities with every sale, and celebrating what it means to be human, so that we can help create a world where “kindness”, “animals”, and "trees" thrive and everyone can feel “equal”.

Our ethos is that violence is weakness. Everything we do is embedded in friendship and collaboration so we can encourage a world with “no war” that is both “safe” and “peaceful” for all.

At The Buddyhood, we exercise and recognise all aspects of our brain, embracing it to reconnect with being human in order to help humanity thrive.

The People Behind The Buddyhood

Champions for children and families

Harleen & Andrew

Founders & Authors
"We are parents, who believe, like all parents, that our children, and every child for that matter, deserves a better world. Post the pandemic, society has become fragmented and emotional dysregulation, compounded with social media, is causing a generational divide and mental health crisis.

It's not fair and we want to do something about it.

We want to champion children and caregivers because it's not easy and everyone is trying their hardest. We care and our books hope to bring people together, whilst sharing the warmth of a hug; something that we would have appreciated when times were tough."

Nichola

Chief Impact Officer

Nicola’s role is supporting schools using our books to encourage children to express their big emotions more responsibly.

Her focus is holistic, supporting everyone around a child so that they feel stable. Thus encouraging a safer environment for a child to learn and be their authentic self, while feeling a sense of belonging.

She also manages our charity partnerships to maximise impact so lives can keep changing for the better.

"The Buddyhood is like no other; a company rooted in positive change, building a brighter future and stopping at nothing to achieve this. I am honoured to be apart of their story."

Cree

Chief Youth Officer

Cree is a creative and musician who advocates for Phi because of the focus on human connection and natural intelligence.

His work has inspired many, uplifting communities and championing young talent, which has won him awards such as Young Artist of the Year at the Inspirational Youth Awards 2025.

He is the pioneer of GripHop music, which combines chaos and calm in pursuit of balance.

“It’s imperative that we stay in tune with what makes us human. Otherwise we’re all partaking in an extinction level event.”
